Old Chinese-inspired conlangs
"Chinese gone Altaic"
Inspired by Türiŋit

Taaŋ, põltõn dzurbõŋõts khiredimsüb;
[...]
Äräitüd! Kholurtud Valimarõm!
Jõnũlõm kholurtud! Äräitüd!
"Chinese gone Elvish"
Inspired by IlL's Talman Swutsim
*ʔaʔ tsˁe srek Cə.lˁəʔ ɬugs t.mˁa r.meʔ -> a ci sσech dlV σucs thəba σvə
Mutations:
- Lenition from prepositions ending with a vowel: tsˁe srek -> ci σech
- Devoicing/provection from prepositions ending with a stop: Cə.lˁəʔ srek -> dlV sσech
- Nasalization from prepositions ending with a nasal: troŋ srek -> ξu nξech
Heavy compounding followed by semantic drift (so verbs can end with things that historically were noun markers etc.)
Riffs on real world languages
- Polysynthetic quasi-Mandarin with Slavic morphology
- Analytic quasi-German with Cantonese tones
- Polish/Khmer hybrid?
